POWERSPORTS/MOTORCYCLE TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION

Overview of Powersports/Motorcycle Technology Education

Purpose:

The vision of Kentucky Powersports/Motorcycle Technology Education is to promote safety standards

and performance standards, enhance leadership, provide relevant curriculum, and to be vital to the

education of all students.

Kentucky Transportation Education will:

Operate as the center for nationally recognized industry standard training.

Provide a critical link in school to employment or postsecondary education.

Develop stronger relationships with the community in terms of mutual advocacy, cooperative

field experiences, employment placement, and support for relevant student organizations and

competitions

Represent an important component in the education of all students.

Require and promote critical thinking and problem solving.

Offer an up to date curriculum based on standards that adapts to changes in the industry.

Integrate academic skills into the Transportation Education Curriculum in order to insure that

students develop written & verbal communications skills, computational skills, and

scientific/math problem-solving skills.

Career Pathways:

*Motorcycle Maintenance and Repair Technician

Standard Based Curriculum

The curriculum is composed of industry standards based competencies/tasks. Therefore, the

teaching/learning focus is on the final results rather than the process.

Kentucky Occupational Skill Standards

The Kentucky Occupational Skill Standards are the performance specifications that identify the

knowledge, skills, and abilities an individual needs to succeed in the workplace. Identifying the necessary

skills is critical to preparing students for entry into employment or postsecondary education. These

standards described the necessary occupational, academic, and employability skills needed to enter the

workforce or postsecondary education in specific career areas. There is an ongoing effort to continue to

refine these standards by which exemplary Transportation Education Programs are evaluated and

certified. This helps insure that curriculum meets industry specifications.

Work Based Learning

Cooperative experience, internships, shadowing and mentoring opportunities provide depth and breadth

of learning in the instructional program and allow students to apply the concepts learned in the classroom.

The Work Base Learning Guide is available on the KDE webpage: www.education.ky.gov.

Student Organizations and Competitions

Participation in Skills USA and the Ford AAA Auto Skills Competition provides a vehicle for students to

employ higher order thinking skills, to interact with high-level industry people and to further enhance

their leadership skill through their participation in regional, state and national competitive events and

local activities.
